5 Ways Your Business Can Help Save Money & The Environment

Cut Down On Junk Mail – Junk mail is one of the most wasteful of business practices. If your company employs sending out flyers, ads, newsletters, etc., try to do them less frequently as well as try to cut down on the amount of materials used to create them.

Use Digital Documents – One great way to reduce your paper use and get business documents signed more quickly is to use electronic signatures. There are several software programs that do this, like Adobe Acrobat Professional which allows you to sign PDF files digitally instead or physically, as well as to create PDF documents with signature fields for clients or business partners to sign to sign. Business partners and clients can then sign the documents digitally (e-sign) and send them back to your business so both have a signed copy without having to print anything out.

Be Waste Smart – Recycling can be easier than throwing something away. Simply place paper recycling bins in convenient locations around the office. Next to copiers, break rooms or areas and mail boxes are good convenient locations. Recycling bins for aluminum cans and plastic bottles next to trash cans is also a great and easy way to recycle.

Save Paper By Printing Less – Paper is on average about a third of all office waste. You can help reduce your paper waste by using as little paper as possible and being smart about the paper that you do use. Cutting down on the number of e-mails that you print out is an easy way to save paper.

Start A Recycling Program For Electronics – When old electronic equipment needs to be replaced don’t just trash it. Make it company policy to recycle electronics. There are many computer and other electronics manufacturers that offer a take-back program for old computers and other office electronics.
